Alexandra [31]

The structural level in which the muscle produces the contraction is known as the muscle fiber.

<h3>What is a muscle fiber?</h3>

A muscle fiber is a single muscular cell that is able to contract by using specialized proteins such as filaments of myosin and actin.

This unit (muscle fiber) is able to contract both in vivo and in vitro by establishing suitable environmental conditions (e.g., proper calcium levels).

In conclusion, the structural level in which the muscle contracts is the muscle fiber.

What is the function of lipoprotein lipase?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Hydrolysis of triglycerides in lipoproteins

Explanation:

Lipoprotein lipase is a water-soluble enzyme which includes pancreatic lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase.  

Enzymes involved in triacylglycerol digestion are lipases and they catalyze the partial hydrolysis of triglycerides into a mixture of free fatty acids and acylglycerols. After digestion of lipids, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form micelles. Micelles are structures that are necessary for the transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte. But, micelles cannot be absorbed by epithelial cell, only freely dissolved monoglycerides and fatty acids can.
